| Additional information |
Part of Mongolia's lunar series issued through the late 1990s, this piece was produced for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation — Mongolia had no meaningful gold coin tradition of its own, and these issues were effectively contract-struck to capitalize on East Asian demand for lunar-themed bullion and commemoratives.
The 1999 Year of the Rabbit aligns with a twelve-year cycle meaningful across Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Mongolian astrological traditions. At 7.78 grams of .999 gold, the weight corresponds to one quarter troy ounce.
